The Supreme Court ruling is likely to have a cascading effect on other lawsuits filed against the Jan. 6 select committee, which cited Trump's pending litigation as a crucial flashpoint in their own efforts.

The key line in the ruling: Trump would have failed even if he were the incumbent president.

The lone dissenter was a funder of the Stop the Steals husband.

This puts Meadows (and Bannon) in extra legal jeopardy. Their defense against contempt of Congress based in part on executive privilege claim.

(They may want to comply now saying were waiting for litigation resolution)
